  • Peloton Bikes now available in 50+ Accor hotels, resorts and apartments across Australia; loyalty points earned for workouts completed during guests’ stay
  • New data reveals that maintaining a healthy regime is important to Australians when travelling

Australians will now be able to earn more than just endorphins after a workout when travelling, with leading fitness brand, Peloton, and Australia’s largest hotel operator, Accor, announcing a new partnership today.

Following the successful launch of Peloton into select Accor hotels around 2022, the expanded agreement will see Peloton Bikes installed in more than 50 of Accor’s most popular hotels, resorts and apartments across Australia. Plus, in the first of its kind program in Australia and for a limited time, guests will be rewarded for working out with Peloton - with the ability to earn 100 ALL - Accor Live Limitless Reward points when they workout on the Peloton Bike or the Peloton App during their stay at one of the participating Accor hotels, including Mövenpick Hotel Melbourne on Spencer, Pullman Sydney Hyde Park, Sofitel Sydney Darling Harbour, Novotel Perth Murray Street, and Peppers Soul Surfers Paradise. Guests simply need to show their workout in the Peloton App at the hotel front desk or in the gym, scan the QR code provided and register for the offer prior to check-out to redeem. The points can be redeemed for their next holiday or to unlock tickets to some of the most popular concerts, shows and sporting events around the world.

At all participating Accor properties, Australians will now be able to continue their health and fitness routines during their stay, thanks to Peloton’s flexibility and variety using a Peloton Bike or the Peloton App. Whether it's mirroring a strength workout from the Peloton App to your in-room TV, enjoying a cycling class in the hotel gym on the Peloton Bike, or taking an outdoor walk or run around a new location via the Peloton App, there’s something for every Accor guest to enjoy. Peloton’s 57 instructors lead live and on-demand classes across 16 different fitness modalities - from yoga and stretching to walking, running, cycling and more, so no matter your preference or fitness level, Peloton will keep you motivated and keep you moving.

New data reveals Australians’ desire for health when travelling

To support the expanded launch, Peloton and Accor commissioned research with YouGov to uncover Australians’ attitudes to health and fitness while travelling for work or leisure. The findings revealed that maintaining their current fitness regime when travelling is important to Australian travellers.

  • Two in three Aussies (66%) surveyed said that maintaining their health and exercise regime when on holidays was important to them, with Millennials more likely than Gen Z and Gen X to say sticking to their regime is extremely important (37%, compared to and 21% and 24% respectively).
  • When it comes to business travel specifically, among the 50% of Aussies who travel within Australia for work, 76% - the equivalent of 7.5 million people - said that maintaining their health and exercise regime when travelling was important to them. In relation to what Australians are looking for when staying at a hotel for work or leisure, the majority (68%) would prefer to exercise using hotel facilities when they are in a new destination, with many stating that the opportunity to try new fitness experiences would enhance their stay.
  • Two in three Gen Z and Millennials (67% respectively) agree that the opportunity to try new fitness experiences is likely to positively impact the quality of their hotel stay.
